Can you oven bake the chicken?
I prefer to shallow bake the chicken. It’s quicker and it helps to get the coating really nice and crispy. If you prefer to bake the chicken, place it in a preheated oven at 350F and bake for around 25 minutes until it is cooked through.

Can you make these sandwiches ahead of time?
It is best to serve these sandwiches as soon as they are made so that they are nice and crispy. You can dredge the the chicken breast one to two days before you cook them and keep them covered in the fridge.

Can you make this recipe with chicken thighs?
Yes! This recipe works well with both thigh and breast meat. If you use chicken thighs, they will require a slightly longer cooking time.

More Recipe Notes and Tips
The buns I used were labeled ‘Italian Hoagies’, but any oblong shape would work.
I used a cast iron pan, but any pan should work.
I used canola oil.

Heat oil in pan on medium high heat. When oil is hot, turn heat down to medium and shallow fry the chicken for three to four minutes on each side until golden brown and no longer pink inside.
Place the chicken on a rack over a cookie sheet and top with sliced mozzerella cheese. Broil the chicken for 3 minutes until the cheese is melted. Watch carefully so they don’t burn.
Cut buns in half, spread with butter and sprinkle with garlic salt. Toast under the broiler for 3-5 minutes, watching carefully.
Heat marinara sauce in the microwave for 1 minute, stirring after 30 seconds. Spoon ¼ cup marianara sauce on each chicken cutlet and sprinkle with chopped basil. Place on buns and serve.
NOTES
You could dredge the chicken in the flour, egg, crumbs without repeating the eggs and crumbs step, but I found this gave the chicken a nice thick crust.

Middle Earth Lentil and Kielbasa Casserole

Inspired by Tolkien's "The Trilogy" comes a dish from a dear and long time friend Kathy.
